Chennai, August 30
India’s moon rover has clicked a snap of its carrier -- the moon lander -- on the lunar soil, and the Indian space agency on Wednesday released the same.
Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) in a post on the social media platform X said: “Smile, please! Pragyan Rover clicked an image of Vikram Lander this morning. The image was taken by the Navigation Camera onboard the Rover (NavCam). NavCams for the Chandrayaan-3 Mission are developed by the Laboratory for Electro-Optics Systems (LEOS).”
